I do shanks in the crockpot with lots of garlic, some rosemary and red wine. Cook them until they're falling off the bone tender. Absolutely delicious!

e.t.a : Also use beef broth, onions, carrots, salt/pepper.

Found this: https://www.recipetineats.com/slow-roast-leg-of-lamb/

I like my lamb roasts (or leg of lamb) pink inside and haven't noticed it being tough. But, the author of the above link says either cook it pink (the way I like it) or cook it low and slow (the way @tortoise) does it. It looks like both work!

I will say a good meat thermometer is crucial if you're going for pink.
